Cumberland Council invites you to have your say on a Planning Proposal and associated draft Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA) and draft Development Control Plan (DCP) for 4-12 Railway Street, Lidcombe. These documents are on exhibition from Wednesday, 4 September 2019 to Tuesday, 1 October 2019.
The proposal seeks to increase the height controls for the site and include a bonus Floor Space Ratio (FSR) provision to accommodate a mixed use development with commercial uses at the ground floor and approximately 320 residential apartments above. The draft DCP proposes a number of planning controls to protect and enhance local amenity and the draft VPA involves the dedication of land to Council for the extension of Friends Park on Davey Street, Lidcombe.
